Mark Mardell reports from Qatar.

If proven, these new allegations could change the fortunes not just of a sports tournament but of a country, Qatar.

The Supreme 7 Committee for Delivery and Legacy 8 strongly denies all the wrongdoings alleged by the Sunday Times. In fact, they say that Mohamed Bin Hammam played no official or unofficial role in securing the bid for Qatar in 2022.
